问题     In order to communicate thoughts and feelings, there must be a conventional system of signs or symbols which mean the same to the sender and the receiver.
    The means of receiving communications are too numerous and varied for systematic classification; therefore, the analysis must begin with the means of receiving communication. Reception of communication is achieved by our senses. Sight, heating, and touch play the most important roles.
    Example of visual communication are gesture and mini-cry. Although both frequently accompany speech, there are systems that rely solely on sight, such as those used by deaf and dumb persons. Another means of communicating visually is by signals of fire, smoke, flags or flashing lights. Feeling may be simply communicated by touch, such as handshaking , although a highly developed system of handshaking has enabled blind, deaf, and dumb persons to communicate intelligently. Whistling to someone, applauding in a theater, and other forms of communication by sound rely upon the ear as a receiver. The most fully developed form of auditory communication is, of course, the spoken language.
    The means of communication mentioned so far have two feature in common; they last only a short time, and the persons involved must be relatively close to each other. Therefore all are restricted in time and space.
Applauding is specifically mentioned as an example of ______.

选项 A、communication by sound
B、gesture and mini-cry
C、communication by touch
D、a simple system of visual communication

答案A

解析 由第三段倒数第二句可知,applauding是作为声音交际的一个例子,因此选A。
